Hello, can someone tell me how to find the multiplicative inverse of an element in a factor ring? Let the element be f and the factor ring T[x]/(m). The basic idea is to solve a diophantine equation like f*u-m*v=1,right?and we need to find u

When you have found a polynomial $u$ such that $fu=1+mv$ for some polynomial $v$, the multiplicative inverse of $f+(m)$ will be $u+(m)$. Thanks from ricsi046
